- Honda has released the all-new Civic. The 10th generation model gets a fresh design inside and out, a stiffer, lighter chassis, more intricate suspension design and a pair of new petrol engines - all of which Honda believes will be enough to topple rivals like the Vauxhall Astra and Volkswagen Golf from the top of the class. But has the hard work paid off? Does it drive better than ever, or has the redesign come at the expense of comfort or practicality? I headed to the Civic's world debut to find out.

I think it actually looks pretty good.
this car look so much better in person than pix/vid.
yes. i was not a fan until i stand in front of it. then i was like "wow!"
Yeah, bought a nearly new one in grey metallic and it looks great imo
the exterior is more clumsy in real life
''The more you turn the wheel, the more the wheels turn'' How revolutionary XD
So that's where we've been going wrong 😶
Most decently brained people understood what he meant.
"Revolutionary"
I get it!
Hahahahahah laughed so hard at this
Master of puns XD XD XD
ladies, a little bit more stiffness is always a good thing - Mat Watson 2017
Aiden Memes I was surprised that he got away with saying that! Or said it in the first place!
StriderCX it's his channel lol he can say whatever haha
family friendly Watson, family friendly Watson, family friendly Watson, knows how girls have fun!
hahahaha youre silly
I absolutely love this car. I think it is a better car than the hyundai and the vw. It also has that Honda quality which is head and shoulders above anything else in its class.
This model does have serious issues with engine oil dilution. To prevent engine damage, better renew the engine oil and filter every 8000km or so.
@@Tom-sd2vi so just the same as any other car😂
@@connerthomson9629 No. What rubbish is that?
@@Tom-sd2vi I've always changed my oil in all my cars from 8 to 10k km
@@Tom-sd2vi Surely that's what you gotta do to every car. Depending on the driver, that's like once a year or once every two years. Not a big deal.
I personally kinda like the design.
4:58 I'm sold, best feature you can find in any car today, why didn't they think of it sooner. Great job Honda.
I think it looks great. Unlike most other cars it dares to standout. It's pushing the design envelope and will take you time to adjust that's all. It's designed for the younger driver.
And will look like shit in two years time already.
Adam Alistair I'm 18 and I definitely agree with you on the different design aspect of this branch of Honda vehicles. I actually enjoy the physical appearance a lot when compared to the others. It is very eye-catching to me.
kraenk12 - I disagree.. my 2006 civic looks more newer than most cars on the road today. people always hold back at the lights and whilst driving, to look at it. 👀👌
I really dig the design. I think if you're just a little on the fence about it, then you have to see how it looks in person with different exterior color choices. It's sure more exciting looking than my 2010 impreza hatch!
Yep much better looking when you see it in person or on the road. Getting my grey metallic sport next month :D
I had recently a chance to test the US spec 1.5Turbo with CVT in a Sport trim level, the one with 18 inch rims and central dual exhaust, and I absolutely loved it. The mix of power, looks, practicality is just outstanding!!! Good job Honda.
I think Honda did a good job with design, both interior and exterior. But they kept more American consumers in mind than customers elsewhere. Still a good car with 270cm of axle span which is awesome. Dashboard design is way ahead of competitors. It is definitely on my shortlist.
Wow Matt, great moves, keep it up, proud of you.
*cough*
Front is hot. The back can use some squats
celonman it's the exact opposite to me
hah, same. love the back (though yeah, mayyybe the plastic parts on the bumper could have been dialed down a wee bit), but the front's just passable to me.
back needs a baseball bat
The saloon and coupe look much better in the back than the hatchback. The new saloon version is becoming my favourite compact saloon!
The rear is also good
The sedan version of the Civic looks better with the style.
Patrick Gillespie riiiight

K_Q_ J_H nice joke
K_Q_ J_H it just looks real shit m8
Perhaps, but a bit less practical.
The sedan version is more attractive and well proportioned. Do we get that in Europe?
trefod probably not, because beside Russia, Europe doesn't like sedans.
Artur Niemczyk you probably meant except russia
Artur Niemczyk but we do
So in how many European countries is the new Megane sedan available? And why?
Artur Niemczyk in Denmark we don't have a Renault megane sedan but we have the Renault talisman instead
this is a great review. gear box, steering wheel, handling and head room.. everything very well explained. thank you Mat.
Great review as always, love the the first person shots!!
For me, it's amazing to see and hear the different views and interpretations for the same cars and models, by professional different viewers from the USA, UK, and Europe... totally different conclusions for the same exact cars!
Honda Civic = Fun People
VW Golf = Boring People
Got the 1.5 L last January is pretty good good economic’s and great performance highly recommend

Honda Civic = I enjoy driving.
VW Golf = Just kill me, I hate my life.

@@JMB1891 😂🤣
Improving more and more with every video Matt, keep it up!
The new parcel shelf is a fantastic design! It can even swap sides for left handed people.
What I really like about this new honda is that they adjust themselves to this new trend of turbo petrol but their engines are capable of generating some decent hp. Compared to ford opel or whatever european/german cars. The 1.5 petrol engine is in my point of view the most balanced engine on the market atm.
I bought a 19 plate diesel from a Honda dealer. had it back to the garage 3 times for faults and headaches with electrics including the sharks fin on the roof failed. Tomorrow in its in for all the warning lights came on for no reason and staying on atm.
Great review, love this new Civic and will be trading my 2013 Hatch on this new 10th gen when it arrives in New Zealand later this year. The 1.5 turbo saloon drives brilliantly, strong gutsy engine combined with excellent road manners. I love the design and agree with previous comments, offensive is far better than dull and boring, this car is no way boring and because it's a Honda and Japanese, it'll be bullet proof. looking for a drive in the type R too. Welcome back Honda.
Looks really nice inside and out!
Why dont you make Used car tests?
dr 70194 Good idea.
because used car is vary one from the other. Some might be good and many of them are pure trash
Look on Carbuyer. As time goes on they'll be used cars ;)
I love the cars that are cheap but higher class. I would love to see them compared with the new ones.
They test new cars because Car Wow is a business that gets you discount on a new car. So there's no reason for them to test used cars.
please compare the mazda 3 and honda civic hatchback
and Focus, perfect trio for petrolhead :)
I'm still waiting for a Mazda 3 review :\
It's like the front and rear were designed by different people.
yeah and that people are 5 year old kids, terrible design .
Yeah, fronts good but the rear is a mess. The tail lights and fake grille need work.
I think the designer was probably bipolar.
More like 3, if you count the sedan model.
Hi Mat, can you let me know where you taped the review? Looks amazing...
Great review once again. Matt are you going to do any live q&a videos?
i nearly threw up my dinner when i got a view of that back exterior. that is hideous.
Our condolences for your loss.
I think the front's more offensive. It's like a fat man sat on it and squashed its lip.
Mr Nobody You Made My DAAY 😂😂
i think it looks alright, not pretty but inoffensive
it's like they took a normal civic and squished the back against the wall..and called it a hatchback..... the proportions just don't match at all .....it needs that longer wheel base for the back.
is this good for general long term use in urban environment and for uber? i was going to get prius but i don't like the design.
I didn't like it at first but I have been following it for the past couple of months and it has grown on me. Looks well in silver and gun metal grey. Also Honda as a manufacturer are sound.
I saw this car in the metal grey color and it look absolutely STUNNING!!
Appreciated the heads up (literally) about the rear seat headroom. My dad's a little taller than me, so I always try the back seat at the dealership -- but I haven't been in the new Civic yet.
It's a great car. I bought one last Friday.
hows it going? Im thinking of getting a Honda next year
I got the civic sport-line dec 2018 blue
How is it holding up? Any issues so far?
It's not like a Mazda 3, but the look grows on you in a properly good way and it's fairly distinctive enough to set it apart from the competition. Like the wide aggressive stance and the rear ^fake air vent ( at least ) has a design continuity with the front. Prefer the cabin of these Honda over the Mazda.
I like your walk around. Well done.
Just got mine 2017 I love it
I don't care what you think…it looks amazing !!
when this car came out I didnt like it but it eventually grew on me and ending up buying one with no regrets
great driving car fantastic gear box very comfortable I've had golfs and to me they dont drive as nice as the Honda civic
i have been waiting a long time for this review
about time 👌
My brother and his wife have a 2017? Honda. Base model. They had a hyundai elantra 4 door before and had to get the struts replaced 4x within 3 years because they are quite overweight lol. Before the warranty ended he bought the used Honda. 4? Years and lots more driving and he hasn't had anything replaced. I'm impressed with this fact alone! My buddy also drives his cvt Honda like it's a standard hammers the throttle ans brakes hard (makes u carsick) and I'm 4 years never had to replace anything except brakes. Incredible!
Vtec just kicked in, yo!
#Triggered the new civic doesnt come with vtec.
I hope Honda make a proper VTEC engine again with a light body. Like the Integra Type R.
thumbs up for the corset. revolutionary!
I absolutely love the way it looks!
I actually love the look of this car. I'll take one in red, please!
7:01 them's fightin' words
I just bought a blue automatic 1,5 Civic today. Its fun to watch the review when you know you own the car! Being delivered in 2 days. Cant wait!
What are your experiences with this car since you bought it? I'm looking for one with sport plus equipment, but I find it a bit pricey.
i was waiting for this review thank youuu😏
at the front it looks quite sporty with that hot red colour but that back ruins it
Best review of the new Civic that I have seen so far.
Thanks!
I loved my 69 plate 1. 0 SR manual. We took it all over Scotland last summer. Brilliant. Swapped it now for a CR-V. Handling and ride on the Civic was superb.
Didn't think I'd like this in red and until I saw it in the flesh and bought one. Like the look of it. Black compliments the red really well
I loled at corset 😂
The front looks really good, not a fan on the back. Redesign the back and it would make it an amazing car.
I personally love the design .
But then I'm biased because I've had 2 Civics and rolled off the Swindon assembly line in 1962 myself.
Great honest review! Thank you
i really like the new Civic, it looks less 'busy' in my opinion. But the sedan version looks a lot better, it have that grand coupe design which i love
I actually quite like the look of the Civic. It's a massive improvement over the previous model. That sedan was terrible.
What is the seaden? I have a 2016 it's very good but very low
Previous generation is way more better i guess
@@Ishowspeeedtv This generation is better trust me, it is a pleasure to drive with a 6-speed manual and the handling is beautiful around bends & curves - It shares similarities with the Type R version like the short-throw sporty gearbox and the perfect sitting position + its also a low car. Its a really good car overall
Just got one yesterday
Waiting for a review of the upcoming Impreza.
Review the Alfa Romeo Gulia.
the front I could deal with but what ever happened to the back? looks like a wreck lol.
Does the sedan have even less rear headroom?
When comes the video for the honda jazz ?
I like the design actually...
But then again i drive a Skoda yeti so...
Jurgen DX ... 😂
Jurgen DX yeah youre opinion mustnt count then
Jurgen DX Me: I like the design actually.... but I drive a Passat so what do I actually know about design....
I also like the new civic... but I drive Renault Scenic... so....
Jurgen DX I also like the design of Skoda Yeti, but i just prefer Skoda Octavia and Skoda Superb.
I actually like how it looks haha
I got a blue civic manual gear box. Just1 problem with it the front sensor some times goes off saying something is in front of me when there isn't. BUT other than at it's great car and i love the sound it makes when you put your foot down.
I bought one few weeks ago and love it. Speak to honda re sensor. I had same problem
I really love the civic. Hope to own one someday
review the new passat from vw
It's on the way!
haha
arissa Amanda what's funny
why no magic seats :(
fuel tank had to be moved to just below the rear seats to accomodate the multi link independent rear suspension. Fair trade off if you ask me, and not sure the last gen U.S. spec Civic had magic seats anyway.
real nice review. two cars in the vid,manual and auto that's new. keep it up.
Please also do the review of the civic saloon (sedan)
I think after they've seen they got the front right , the Honda designers went for a drink to celebrate , accidentaly got themselves completely shot , and then in the middle of the party remembered they need to do the rear too.
Awesome review! i am torn between this and a BMW 1 seires. thankfully for me you reviewed them both!
Really love my 2018 civic. Mines the CVT and drives smooth. Only thing is I find it pretty thirsty on the 1.5 turbo.
Thank you Mat i learned many things from your videos.
Mat Watson, you look so alike Linus Tech Tips a TH-camr as well. Are you two related?
Mr_Snow_White X not even close...
Too overdesign? Until you see the CHR
agree on that one, love this design plus its honda so ur pretty safe
I was looking at the Civic on Honda UK the base model has steel wheels not alloys.
does google maps work on the SE trims entertainment system? you can connect your phone to that same as the honda connect thats in the SR trim upwards
Love the new design!
so beautiful car, i like it alot
really want to get 1 but when is the diesel coming out . can't wait to see you review that.
Good sound report thanks
honda = one of the best companies in cars prouction
Lady's definitely love stiff Matt...
The "Magic Seats" were on the Jazz/Fit/9G Euro-Civic platform and the gas tank was under the front seats. This Civic is based on the new CR-V/Civic/NA Accord platform, which places the gas tank in its normal location.

Spot on Matt! Greetings from Canada.
The Sedan is way better design than the hatch.
Honda desperately need a new designer
Aertraveller agree with you. vw has quality but boring.
1MUFC i think same things about toyota. their recent generation cars don't look nice to me.
Agree, id like the lines from the crx -91 in modern car
Same with honda and toyota, they dont like stupid people like u guys.
David Baker we are asian and we have our own taste in design so bear with us just like how our cartoons, robots n hentai. hahaha or buy your continental car for your prefered design..
When are you going to test the new Suzuki Ignis?
Fairly camp review, Matt !
A little bit too expensive with that quality materials and such plastics
I'm not sure which end of this new Civic is the most ugly.
Its def hot!!.. I took the civic turbo for a test ride a couple days ago. It was a blast. But unfortunately just got the Honda Accord Sport SE in October. Love that car too but the turbo had a great kick to it. Can't imagine what the TypeR is like.
The upcoming Civic Hybrid should have the same 7-speed dual clutch used in the Fit Hybrid, which is fun to drive: it does rev properly with a sweet sound for a 1.5L.
the front of the car is beautiful but the rear is hideous...but again, I think the Gen 6 Civic was the best
Interior is really good, but that design with the back.... awful
Love your reviews, Matt. You're so funny! Keep em up. :-)
very informative sir thanks
